When the San Antonio Spurs take the court next season, two Laredoans will be there supporting them on the sidelines for the franchise’s official dance team.

Alexis Flores and Julianne Gamez made the cut on Saturday and have become members of the 2017-18 Silver Dancers. Each is a former member of the United Larriettes.

The duo was among the 30 finalists that took the stage at the Luella Bennack Music Center Saturday in San Antonio. A total of 16 were chosen for the Silver Dancers including one by way of a fan vote.

Flores and Gamez were among the group that will represent Laredo on the team next year. Unfortunately, Laredo couldn’t go 3-for-3 as Amayrani Smith - a former member of the Pelicans dance team - was not selected.
